Hi,

 

my topic is already addressed in another post on this site (https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/LaserJet-Printing/Reset-EWS-passwort-on-Laser-107w/m-p/7455690#M387163)

 

An excerpt fyc

 

"I bought the HP Laser 107w printer. I setup this printer but unfortunately forgot EWS Password.

How can I set the password valute to default?
The problem is simple: reset the EWS password.
...

Today I called the support ... and they answer me that to solve this problem they need to substitute the printer.
I don't belive that! How is it possible that there is no other solution for sw problem?

This is a wonderful printer, I don't want to change it"

 

I am suffering the same problem and need a way to reset the EWS password. Unfortunately I find myself unable to add to the original thread so I start a new one.

 

As I understand from the post mentioned above, instructions are available as a private message, which I would kindly ask for.

 

Let me add that I consider it a bit of a shame that no publicly documented procedure exists by which to do a factory reset of the (otherwise very appealing) HP 107w device. I would've thaught that this is a fundamental (if not the most fundamental) requirement towards any complex electronical device.
